    Surgical nursing
    Hello,
    I am a high school senior and I have to write a informative speech on a career. I am very interested in Surgical Nursing; but as I have researched more about it I have come across a couple other specialties that seem similar. So, What is the difference between a surgical nurse and an surgical first assistant/ surgical assistant?
    Thank you!
